See, I think I am with the people that are saying why sue? A few hours in a stuck elevator equates to PTSD or pain and suffering or ??????

Seriously... get the bill comped and tell them they will cover your hotel costs at another hotel on your next visit. Why go through the hassle of a legal action?

They pissed you off by not responding properly, but the legal action seems over the top and too much of a reaction. I don't see why any court/jury/attorney would deem this to be a reason to judge in your favor.

It makes for a great story, but the lawsuit will just drag you down and you won't be satisfied with whatever you get.

I injured my back working for the airlines years and years ago...... I mean seriously hurt it pretty bad. i am thinking hey.. the airline was negligent, right... worker's comp right??? Lots of money to pay for college.. yeah.. I am set now!!!! Want to know what it was worth in the end??? $1250 and the lawyer took 1/3 of that on contingency. BFD man... $800 for my fucked up back. I would have rather had a bunch of free flights.

Be smart... don't sue.. it won't be worth it.
